Its really not too bad, just pull the battery out and tray and remover the two bolts that hold it to the bellhousing. Its in the back of the engine under the intake manifold. Make sure you reattach the ground for the starter.

I am going by 1gen experience but its in the same area.

I checked alldata you have to remove the battery and air box and intake hose. You should be able to take out of the top. It doesnt give very good instructions.

Its under the intake manifold its hard to see just stick your hand back there and feel around. You should be able to see from under the car too.
